The EXCITEMENT is rising!! This week I spoke to a couple of people on the Planning Committee. Ginny Hendley, Media Chair, says, “COME OUT to Dance, Drink, and Dine for a FABULOUS cause. The party will be a celebration of life to support the Elderly or Senior Adults of the Georgia Southern University Gerontology Department. We are raising funds to support them.”

Nancy Wilson, Committee Chair said, “We are BLESSED by the people and businesses of Statesboro and Bulloch County, to have received so many generous donations ranging from $100 to $1,200. Here are several giftings: Quail Hunting with lunch valued at $1,200, 3-night stay at Mountain Creek valued at $600, Hunter Cattle Company $325 gift card value, a pair of lamps from L.A. Waters, a VINO 1910 $100 gift card, Oil Changes and Tire Rotation certificates, and much more."
